Pickled jalapeños are a tangy, spicy condiment made by preserving fresh jalapeño peppers in a brine of vinegar, water, salt, and often sugar or spices. Widely enjoyed in Mexican cuisine, these peppers add flavor and heat to dishes like tacos, nachos, and sandwiches. They are low in calories, typically less than 5 calories per serving, and provide small amounts of vitamin C and capsaicin, a compound linked to anti-inflammatory and metabolism-boosting effects. However, they can be high in sodium due to the brine, which may be a concern for people following a low-sodium diet. Pickled jalapeños are a versatile and flavorful addition to meals, offering a lively punch without contributing excess fat or sugar, though moderation is key to balancing their health benefits with potential drawbacks.
